4. Suppose that \( A, B, C \) and \( X \) are square matrices of the same size, such that \( A \) and \( B \) are invertible, and \( X B A=C \). Which one of the following statements is always true? \[ X=B^{-1} C A^{-1} \] \[ X=B^{-1} A^{-1} C \] \[ X=A^{-1} B^{-1} C \] \[ X=C A^{-1} B^{-1} \] \[ X=C B^{-1} A^{-1} \]

Let A, B, and C be nxn matrices and let O be the nxn matrix with all zero entries. For each of the following statements, select true or false. If true, explain why. If false, provide a counterexample. (a) If AB = AC, then B = C. (b) If AB = 0, then A = O or B = O.
